16:00:15 <jonatack> hi
16:00:19 <lightlike> hi
16:00:20 <fjahr> There are no pre-proposed meeting topics this week. Any last minute ones to add?
16:00:21 <adys> hi
16:00:22 <hebasto> hi
16:00:31 <stringintech> hi
16:00:35 <sipa> hi
16:00:51 <kanzure> hi
16:00:59 <sr_gi> hi
16:01:35 <fjahr> Ok, let's start with WGs
16:01:37 <fjahr> #topic Cluster Mempool WG Update (sdaftuar, sipa)
16:02:21 <sipa> I have closed #30289. Sadly, that also means dissolving the cluster mempool WG.

16:02:24 <vasild> hi
16:02:32 <sedited> hi
16:02:34 <fjahr> RIP!
16:02:52 <sipa> Thanks everyone for getting us this far.
16:03:29 <sipa> that's it :)
16:03:38 <andrewtoth_> hi
16:03:45 <fjahr> Congrats on getting this far and thanks!
16:03:47 <fjahr> #topic Kernel WG Update (sedited)
16:03:55 <instagibbs> well fought project, congrats
16:04:17 <andrewtoth_> congrats sipa!
16:04:45 <sedited> another RFC PR for improving blockmap and cchain concurrency was opened in #34654
16:04:46 <corebot> https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/34654 | [RFC] `BlockMap` and `CChain` Concurrency Improvement by alexanderwiederin · Pull Request #34654 · bitcoin/bitcoin · GitHub
16:04:47 <sipa> just over 3 years since sdaftuar and I started talking about it :)
16:04:54 <sedited> that's all from me.
16:05:16 <fjahr> #topic Benchmarking WG Update (l0rinc, andrewtoth)
16:05:39 <andrewtoth_> #34165 was merged, thanks everyone!
16:05:44 <corebot> https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/34165 | coins: don't mutate main cache when connecting block by andrewtoth · Pull Request #34165 · bitcoin/bitcoin · GitHub
16:05:46 <andrewtoth_> I rebased #31132 for that as well as furszy's ThreadPool. I'm hopeful we can merge that soon after v31 branch off
16:05:50 <corebot> https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/31132 | validation: fetch block inputs on parallel threads 3x faster IBD by andrewtoth · Pull Request #31132 · bitcoin/bitcoin · GitHub
16:06:18 <andrewtoth_> Not sure if l0rinc is here, but he opened #34641 after last week's meeting. Would be nice to get that in for v31
16:06:21 <corebot> https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/34641 | node: scale `-dbcache` default from total system RAM by l0rinc · Pull Request #34641 · bitcoin/bitcoin · GitHub
16:06:29 <andrewtoth_> that's it from me
16:06:42 <fanquake> I think if we want to get that in for 31, we want to try and stem the scope creep there
16:06:56 <sipa> fanquake: i just left some comments to that effect
16:07:00 <fanquake> Trying to do stuff like detecting containerisation, is too much, for what could be a one-liner change plus release notes
16:07:18 <andrewtoth_> fair feedback
16:08:00 <fjahr> Not seeing any of the other WGs present. Anything else to discuss?
16:08:19 <sipa> but i think it's worthwhile, absent 31132, it's a very simple and probably very practically beneficial improvement for many users
16:08:45 <andrewtoth_> sipa: indeed
16:09:14 <fanquake> fjahr: theuni said he'd be away, but no update
16:09:25 <fjahr> fanquake: thanks
16:10:57 <sr_gi> I'd like to add that, marcofleon opened an RFC issue for conceptual Erlay discussion (#34542) after it was brought up here a couple of weeks ago. Some people have contributted really valuable feedback, but I'd like others to also chime in :)
16:10:59 <corebot> https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/34542 | RFC: Erlay Conceptual Discussion · Issue #34542 · bitcoin/bitcoin · GitHub
16:11:59 <sr_gi> I'd like to encourage others*
16:12:54 <fjahr> sr_gi: thanks!
16:13:12 <sipa> yeah, good discussion there
16:13:59 <fjahr> If there is nothing else we can end early and everyone reviews v31 milestone stuff with the time we saved :p https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/milestone/74
